An Lingrong after rebirth

An Lingrong secretly vowed in her heart that she must change the tragic fate of herself and her mother in this life! She knew that only by making herself strong could she protect herself and her family. So, she began to work hard and study various skills, including music, chess, calligraphy, painting, poetry, and songs.

That day, An Lingrong asked her maid Lian'er, "Has father returned from court?" Lian'er replied, "The master left court at noon." An Lingrong thought that if she wanted to change her predicament, she must first win her father's support and attention.

So, she walked to the entrance of the garden without hesitation, waiting for An Bihuai to appear. Finally, when she saw her father, An Lingrong quickly stepped forward, bowed to him, and said, "Father, I have something important to tell you!"

An Bihuai frowned and stared at his eldest daughter. He was very surprised that his timid and introverted daughter dared to talk to him, and secretly guessed that nothing good might happen.

"Speak!" An Bihuai looked at An Lingrong seriously.

An Lingrong lowered her head slightly, seeming a little nervous. After a while, she spoke softly, "Dad, I have made some progress in poetry and calligraphy in recent days. I want to show it to you."

Hearing this, a hint of surprise flashed across An Bihuai's eyes, but he quickly regained his indifference, "Oh? Really? Then read it to me."

An Lingrong took a deep breath, tried to calm herself down, and then began to recite the poem she had carefully prepared. Her voice was clear and melodious, like a yellow oriole singing out of a valley, making people intoxicated.

An Bihuai sat there quietly, listening attentively to his daughter's recitation. As time went by, the expression on his face gradually softened, and his originally tense brows slowly relaxed.

When An Lingrong finished reciting the last sentence, An Bihuai couldn't help but applaud, "Good! Lingrong, I didn't expect you to have such outstanding talent. You really impress your father."

An Lingrong was delighted when she heard this, and quickly looked up at her father, her eyes full of expectation and joy. She knew that at this moment, she had finally received her father's approval. She would work harder in the future. "An Bihuai nodded with satisfaction.

An Lingrong was secretly delighted, she knew that she had finally taken the first step to change her destiny. "Thank you for the compliment, Daddy." An Lingrong smiled slightly, "I still have some questions about poetry and prose, I want to ask you."

An Bihuai looked at his confident and intelligent daughter, and felt relieved. He nodded gently: "Well, Lingrong, just ask whatever you want to ask."

An Lingrong's eyes sparkled, and she said slowly, "Daddy, I want to know how to write a good poem?"

An Bihuai smiled and patiently explained: "When writing poetry, we should pay attention to the expression of artistic conception and emotion, and also pay attention to the grasp of rhythm and tempo. In addition, it is also very important to read more classic poems, so that we can learn other people's writing skills and styles."

An Lingrong nodded seriously, indicating that she understood. Then, she asked a few more specific questions about poetry creation, and An Bihuai answered them one by one.

In the following days, An Lingrong often asked An Bihuai for advice on poetry and prose. An Bihuai also discovered her talent and began to focus on cultivating her. In addition to teaching her to recite poems and paint, he also let her learn other talents such as playing the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting.

As time went by, An Lingrong's poetry and prose became more and more advanced, and her talent gradually became known to people. She began to actively participate in various social activities and get to know more people. By communicating with them, she not only learned a lot of knowledge, but also made many like-minded friends.

At a party, An Lingrong met a woman named Shen Meizhuang. They hit it off immediately and had a great time talking to each other. Shen Meizhuang praised An Lingrong's poems and essays, and the two became good friends from then on.

An Lingrong knew the importance of personal connections, so she actively participated in various parties and banquets to make friends with more dignitaries and literati. With her intelligence, talent, gentleness and kindness, she won everyone's love and gradually became a highly regarded figure.

Under An Bihuai's guidance, An Lingrong's poetry and prose skills improved day by day. Not long after, a grand poetry meeting was held in the capital, and many famous literati were invited to participate. An Lingrong was very excited when she heard the news. She decided to take this opportunity to show her talent and let more people know her.

On the day of the poetry gathering, An Lingrong dressed up carefully and put on simple and elegant clothes, looking fresh and refined. She came to the poetry gathering and talked with other literati and discussed poetry with each other.

At the poetry meeting, An Lingrong recited several of her own poems, which drew applause from the audience. Her poems were beautiful and moving, full of profound emotions and philosophy, which made people fall in love with them.

After this poetry meeting, An Lingrong became famous, and her poems received widespread attention and praise. Her talent was fully demonstrated, and her future seemed bright. However, she did not become proud and complacent, but continued to study hard and constantly improve her literary literacy.

After An Lingrong heard the news, she decided to seize this opportunity to show her talent. She carefully prepared several poems and went to the poetry meeting with full expectations.

At the poetry meeting, An Lingrong's poems won praise from everyone, and her name quickly spread throughout the capital. From then on, she became a rising star in the capital's literary world and attracted the attention of many dignitaries.

As her fame grew, An Lingrong's life changed dramatically. She began to frequently visit various occasions and met many powerful people.

However, she did not forget her original intention - to change her fate. She knew that in this palace full of power and calculation, relying on talent alone was far from enough. So, she used her wisdom and connections to start planning her future step by step...

At a banquet, An Lingrong met a young and promising general. The two had a great conversation, and the general praised her talent and wisdom. An Lingrong realized that this general might be an important helper in achieving her goals. So she secretly collected intelligence, understood the general's preferences and needs, and tried to get closer to him.

Soon after, a war broke out on the border, and the emperor ordered the conscription of generals to go to war. When An Lingrong heard the news, she immediately thought of the general. She cleverly used her connections and wisdom to recommend the general to lead the army and gave him advice behind the scenes.

The general lived up to everyone's expectations and made many achievements on the battlefield, becoming famous. After returning to Beijing, the emperor was very pleased and rewarded the general greatly. An Lingrong also won the emperor's favor and was given a high status. She finally realized her wish and began to change the fate of herself and her mother.

She also needed to constantly improve her abilities. So she began to study medicine, hoping that it would be useful when the emperor needed it, and further win the emperor's favor.

One day, the emperor felt unwell and the imperial doctors were helpless. An Lingrong volunteered and successfully cured the emperor's illness with her superb medical skills. The emperor loved her more and more and gave her more power and wealth. However, as the saying goes, "A tall tree attracts the wind", An Lingrong's rise aroused the jealousy and resentment of other concubines. They joined forces to frame An Lingrong and try to bring her down.

Faced with numerous crises, can An Lingrong survive? How will she continue to survive in the harem?

An Lingrong knew the enemy's insidious tactics, so she decided to give him a taste of his own medicine. She remained calm on the surface, but secretly collected evidence and planned a counterattack.

One day, the Queen came to visit the Emperor and happened to see An Lingrong offering medicine to the Emperor. The Queen became jealous and deliberately sowed discord between them, accusing An Lingrong of poisoning. An Lingrong was prepared and exposed the Queen's conspiracy on the spot and presented the evidence she had collected to the Emperor.

The emperor was furious and banished the queen to the cold palace. From then on, An Lingrong's reputation and position in the harem became more solid, and gradually no one could shake her.
